• Hi,
    My VPS is running with CentOS 8. I installed there WordPress for my website. After finishing setup of my website, I cannot download/update plugin or theme.
    Error in detail: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/something-may-be-wrong-with-wordpress-org-or-this-servers-configuration-4/

    I got a solution by disabling SELinux for permanently.But, it’s really an idiotic work. Here is a log file of SELinux alert.

    I cannot understand, should I allow these things?
    LOGS:
    SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/php-fpm from using the execmem access on a process.
    SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/php-fpm from write access on the directory wp-content.
    SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/php-fpm from name_connect access on the tcp_socket port 80.

    I just tried one of them to solve:
    SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/php-fpm from write access on the directory wp-content.

    by
    semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t '/path/wp-content'

    restorecon -v 'path/wp-content'

    But after, allowing this, still I’m getting SElinux preventing error. Nothing solve for my site.
    I also tried by allowing main directory of my website/Wordpress by using semanage as well as chcon. Nothing happened good. Did I do anything worn? or what should I do now to solve SELinux permission error for my website.

    TIA
    It’ll be grateful for me if I’ll get help from you.

  • If your WordPress install works without the SELinux enabled then that sounds like you have a configuration or permissions problem with SELinux.

    I’d probably try asking at an SELinux support forum… You might ask your web host for help also.
